The chief minister Pushkar Singh Dhami has said that the traditional fairs represent our culture, spirituality and customs and they should be protected. The CM participated in a programme organised on the occasion of the Bhadraj fair in the Bhadraj temple here on Saturday.
He said that in the earlier times the Fairs used to be the meeting points for the people.

The CM said that Uttarakhand is an important state in terms of tourism and spirituality and the state is moving forward in every sector under the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He said that every possible effort is being made to provide every possible facility to the pilgrims in the Char Dham Yatra. Dhami asserted that the state government is committed to make Uttarakhand one of the best states of the country. He said that the state is moving forward on the path of development by taking everyone along. Dhami said that the state government has taken a decision to provide three LPG cylinders free every year to 1.84 lakh Antyodaya families. 

The CM offered prayers at the temple and took part in the famous Fair. He announced that the Bhadraj fair would be provided a grant equivalent to what is provided to any government fair. Dhami said that the approval for the metaling of the Doodhli- Digoli motor road would be given in this financial year.
